Well caught my problem on another part of a forum on the site. Appears Norton Adblock was causing the problem. Works perfect again!!

Mike, yes, the part about the accounts submenu not persisting over different websites is agreed and will be a feature of the next (imminent) release, along with a preference to turn off the submenu completely if you don’t visit sites like nypost.com where it is needed.

Cheers.

I agree with the “somesite.com” example Jimbo put forth. Dmytri, I get what you’re saying, but does it still need to persist over different websites? If I move away from somesite.com, either by loading a new page, switching tabs, or whatever, do I still need to see the somesite.com submenu in my context menu? This leaves a situation where after BMN has been used and as long as Firefox remains open, anyone could come along and see on what website BMN was last used.

I have been updating bugmenot on a regular basis. For some reason, on every site I try, nyt, inmb, every site on the bugmenot site I have tried and it always returns no login info available. Have uninstalled it, reinstalled. Thought noscript was messing with it, disabled that and adblock. Same results. I know its working with others so it just may be a glitch with me. FF 1.5 installed. Is there something I am doing wrong here? Either way great extension, been using it sinse it came out. Was excited to see it working again. Nice job. Just not working for me. Thanks

Jimbo, thanks for your feedback. Making the “somesite.com” menu show up only when you right click on a text input would mean that you couldn’t select “next account” on sites like nypost.com which do not show the login form on the failed login page, and thus you would have to manually navigate back to the login form. Right now the extension remembers the url of the login form and will do it for you, that is why the menu remains.

Mozilla 1.7.12… Keeps repeating the first account, probably because in the submenu there are no additional accounts listed… (But there are in Firefox.)

Also , is it not longer capable of picking the next and the next and the next and so on by just clicking the first level menu? (Easier that way.) Isn’t doing it for me.

Great extension, though.!
